The name of the song – Lonesome valley – is an allegory of life itself. They tell that everybody has to walk this lonely valley on their own, nobody can go the way for you, even your mom, dad, brother or sister – they can’t, they too have their paths to go. They can call you to come along but they can’t replace you in this. Then, the singers of this folk tell about faith and further develop this idea telling about some preachers and saints of old days, for instance, John and Daniel. Daniel, by the way, was a prophet & he was in a pit full of hungry lions to prove his faith’s truth. There are roads leading to glory.
